Images
Created by hww3. Last updated by hww3, 5 years ago. Version #10.I've created a number of HVM images for use with SmartOS for "alternative" operating systems such as illumos, NetBSD and FreeBSD. These images should support all of the standard SmartOS/Triton integrations, including network and data disk configuration as well as ssh-key and password setting. I set up a simple IMGAPI server to host the latest versions. You can add this server to your imgadm configuration like this: imgadm sources -a http://images.welliver.org I tend to remove older versions as newer ones are pushed, but I can provide older ones on request, subject to the understanding that they may contain integration glitches I've fixed in subsequent releases. A few notes:
- The illumos images all use EFI booting and will run under BHYVE only.
- ZFS expansion is disabled as it seems to cause hang-ups if performed at startup. Expanding manually seems to work just fine; I don’t really have an explanation for this at the moment.
- SSH is enabled for all images, and root login using public keys is permitted.
- The BSD images use MBR booting and will run under KVM only.
- FreeBSD will boot fine on BHYVE but the network configuration mechanism hasn’t been updated to work without the built-in KVM DHCP server. I’d be happy to have a little help fixing that to be in line with the rest (I think the Linux images now use cloud-init?)
- NetBSD seems to crash BHYVE following initialization of the XHCI driver. I haven’t had time to investigate further. Troubleshooting pointers would be welcome here!
